Now for my mystery of the day. Was doing more tests on coil / alternator
cooling & wingtip testing today and got around to stall tests. I was
pleasantly surprised to find that my clean stall speed was down a full 5
MPH. That is HUGE, especially from such a simple mod.
Repeated the test multiple times, accelerated, power on, idle, 1 mph/ 10
second deceleration, the works. The change was real. Then I
tested 1/2 & full flap stall expecting that I would see the usual 4-5 mph
drop in stall speed. Absolutely no difference. Stall was the
same clean or dirty.
Anyone care to take a stab at this?

How about more data Capt Tracy??
You said you sharpened the leading edge of tip but I never saw anything
more. How about a picture? Sounds too good to be true, but trust you
to wring it out. Is the GPS agreeing with the airspeeds. You might be
effecting the pitot input!
